Why Beamer?

Why Beamer?
Pros:
Both dvips/ps2pdf1 and pdflatex supports2
Rich overlay and transition effects
Navigational bars and symbols
Outputs: screen, transparency, handouts, and notes
Emulation of other PDF presentation tools such as Prosper and FoilTEX
Cons:
Difficult to design a template

1 You need this route if you use PSTricks.

2 No dvipdfm support!

Five Themes

Five Themes
The main difference between v 3.0 and v 2.2 is Beamer themes.
Five theme categories:
Presentation Themes – Slide template
Color Themes – Color scheme for slide template
Font Themes
Inner Themes
Outer Themes
Example
\documentclass[slidestop,compress,mathserif]{beamer}
%\usepackage[bars]{beamerthemetree} % Beamer theme v 2.2
\usetheme{Antibes} % Beamer theme v 3.0
\usecolortheme{lily} % Beamer color theme

Transparency Effects
All overlayed stuffs are covered (default)
\beamertemplatetransparentcoveredhigh makes all covered text
highly transparent
\beamertemplatetransparentcovereddynamicmedium makes all
covered text quite transparent, but is a dynamic way. The range of
dynamics is smaller.

Fonts
Text and Math Fonts

Text and Math Fonts I

Excellent support for selecting text and math fonts.
Default text and math fonts: CMSS and CMR Math
You should avoid CMR Math in presentation
Example: http://faq.ktug.or.kr/wiki/uploads/MathFonts.pdf
Beamer option [sans] for text font (default)
mathsans is default.
Equivalent to \usefonttheme{default}
Beamer option [sefif] for text font
mathserif is default.
Equivalent to \usefonttheme[options]{serif}
Beamer option [mathsans/mathserif] for math font

Colors
Color Definition

Color Definition
Beamer loads xcolor package by Uwe Kern, which also supports color
and pstcol.
‘xcolor’ definition
\xdefinecolor{lavendar}{rgb}{0.8,0.6,1}
\xdefinecolor{olive}{cmyk}{0.64,0,0.95,0.4}
\colorlet{structure}{green!60!black} for color substitution
Predefined colors: red, green, blue, cyan, magenta, yellow, black,
darkgray, gray, lightgray, orange, violet, purple, and brown
If you want to use the options of ‘color’ package, pass
[color=option] option to Beamer.
If you want to use ‘pstcol’, pass [xcolor=pst,dvips] option to
Beamer. Now you should use ‘dvips/ps2pdf’
Beamer v3.0 Guide
Colors
More colors in xcolor package

More colors in ‘xcolor’ package

Color mixing is very easy!
color example meaning
green!80!gray text 80% green + 20% gray
green!60!gray text 60% green + 40% gray
green!40!gray text 40% green + 60% gray
-green text remove green from above
You can use animate (Beamer macro) or multido (PSTricks macro)
for fade-in and fade-out!
Beamer v3.0 Guide
Colors
Highlighting Colors

Highlighting Colors
Beamer also has theme-specific highlighting colors:
\alert{text} ⇒ text
\structure{text} ⇒ text
To change these colors:
\usecolortheme[named=yellow]{structure} to change to
yellow.
\setbeamercolor{alerted_text}{fg=cyan}4 to change to cyan.

4 ’_’ means space.

Background Colors

Background Colors
To set solid background color,
\beamersetaveragebackground{color} or
\beamertemplatesolidbackgroundcolor{color}
To set gradient background color,
\beamertemplateshadingbackground{color1}{color2}. ⇒ The
colors in this slide is {blue!5}{yellow!10}.
To set grid background,
\beamertemplategridbackground[grid_space].

Verbatim
Verbatim w/o Overlays

Verbatim w/o Overlays

‘\verb’ or ‘verbatim’ cannot be directly used in Beamer!
If there is no overlay, use \frame[containsverbatim]
\frame[containsverbatim]{\frametitle{..}%
\begin{verbatim}
.. verbatim contents ..
\end{verbatim}
}%

Now in-line verbatim is possible with ‘\verb’.

Color and size can be easily changed.

Figures
Figures Intro

Figures Intro
Standard LATEX figure environment
can be used.
Beamer also loads pgf package. So
PGF command,
\pgfimage[]{file}, is also
possible.
\includegraphics, \pgfimage,
and \pdfuseimage understand
overlays.

Figure: Tiger

PGF Macros

PGF Macros
PSTricks and PGF can be used for locating figures exactly .
Grid size of slide: (LL × UR) = (0cm,-7cm) × (11cm,1cm)
PGF macro for locating figures:
\pgfputat{\pgfxy(0,-6.5)}{\pgfbox[left,base]{\pgfimage[width=1cm]{tiger}}}

If you use the same figure several times, use \pgfdecalreimage

and \pgfuseimage. Or just use \includegraphics.

Zooming Figures
Figures can be zoomed5 using
\framezoom<button overlay><zoomed overlay>(x,y)(w,h).

(x,y): Upper left coordinate point

(w,h): Width and height for zooming
Example:
\frame{\frametitle{Zooming Figures -- Example}
\framezoom<1><2>[border](0.5cm,0.5cm)(2cm,1.5cm)
\framezoom<1><3>[border](1cm,3cm)(2cm,1.5cm)
\framezoom<1><4>[border](3cm,2cm)(2cm,2cm)

\pgfimage[height=6cm]{tiger}
%\includegraphics[height=6cm]{tiger} is working, too!

Timed Overlays

Timed Overlays
Adobe Reader supports timed overlays, often called auto advancing.
Two approaches
\hypersetup{pdfpageduration=time} from hyperref package +
overlay macros
\transduration<n>{time} from beamer package + overlay macros
See beamer pstricks.pdf to see a fancy example.
Try to do the same thing using PGF. Easy or not?
